Very Modern and well maintained hotel only a 15 minute transfer from the airport. The staff were very friendly and welcoming on our arrival and throughout our stay. Shout out to the young man who manned the bar alone during many busy World Cup evenings and the very diligent lifeguard at the pool who was always welcoming with a smile and a wave and happy to help in any way. Our apartment was well designed with all the conveniences required for a self catering holiday. It was clean and modern with a lovely balcony to watch the sunset in the evening as it dipped below the hills. The food was great. We only ate off the menu at lunchtimes as we were self catering but it was always freshly cooked, hot, quick and very tasty. The hotel itself was a short walk from the beach, local shops, restaurants and supermarket. In all this hotel offered great staff, great facilities and at an excellent price. Personally can’t fault them.

“Good hotel, nice pool, quiet location”

I stayed at Monte Feliz with my 11 year old son. I chose the hotel as it’s in a quieter area of Gran Canaria. We had a two bedroom apartment which was spacious and clean.

I stayed at Monte Feliz with my 11 year old son. I chose the hotel as it’s in a quieter area of Gran Canaria. We had a two bedroom apartment which was spacious and clean. I had a couple of minor issues which I reported on their website you can login to once you’re there. The issues were fixed quickly. The website shows you all the times for fitness classes etc and you can book excursions through there, which I did. The pool is a good size, didn’t ever feel too busy. Always managed to find a sun lounger without having to be there super early. Onsite Spar shop which is handy. Didn’t use the sports facilities so can’t comment on them. Splash park was good and hardly ever anyone using it. Staff were pleasant and helped with any queries. I’ve rated 4 rather than 5 due to the food. I only paid for bed and breakfast. Breakfast was great, lots of options. I paid for dinner one evening and it was average, quite a lot of choices but it tasted quite bland and some of it was overcooked. We ate out at other restaurants the other nights. There is beach access from the hotel (lots of steps) and a plaza with good restaurants and some souvenir shops, less than a ten minute walk away. Also, one of the photos when I booked showed a games room with arcade machines, this isn’t there, it’s just a room with a few board games, which is fine but was son was disappointed. I had read some reviews mentioning noise from the race track but we didn’t hear it at all. We were the other side of the hotel though.

Really modern hotel, as a solo traveller it was almost perfect, my room was amazing with a mini kitchen and sofa area, fantastic bathroom, and the room was cleaned everyday. The hotel staff were all extremely pleasant and helpful, I speak Spanish so didnt need to communicate in English but I heard all the staff regularly trying to speak English to create a welcoming environment for all travellers. Special shout out goes to David the lifeguard who makes it his priority to welcome you and hold conversations to make you feel at ease around the pool and build a great atmosphere, he presented excellent customer service. The facilities I used were mainly the pool and the gym, which were both very well maintained but just across the street you can book classes for a range of sports/activities. The buffet offered a range of options that were always pleasant. One negative was the fact all inclusive only included the salad bar at lunch time, if you wanted something else you had to pay from the menu. Drinks were also only part of the all inclusive during meal hours which meant outside of that you had to pay normally. To be honest this should be documented before as I’m sure I wouldn’t have chosen this option if I had known. The location is a short walk away from the beach although it isn’t a beach you can go sunbathing at or swimming, it’s very rocky there is a little area to sit down at and admire the view but that’s all. There were aquatic activities during the day which were fun but no night time entertainment at all, so once you have dinner it can be quite boring. It’s good value for money based on what they lack in some cases they make up for with what they have. Overall, a really good experience, highly recommend visiting if you’re looking for a chilled holiday by the pool or looking to do some sports.
